Tucked away on the first floor of an office building at 70 West Madison Street, Copper Club features an inviting, clubby interior, including private event rooms and an expansive cocktail bar. I remember coming here when another restaurant/bar occupied this space, so it was good to return last week for a drink at the bar.
It was difficult at first to get the server's attention for drink menus, but understandable as my visit was at the peak of happy hour. The cocktail menu is whiskey forward. When I visited it was half-off for "Whiskey Wednesday." I opted for the old fashioned, which was made in house. Next time, I will probably opt for a whiskey, neat, as this drink was pre-mixed. It was serviceable, just not what I was expecting. I found the ambiance to be convivial and relaxing, with a nice buzz at the bar. I am planning to revisit Copper Club for a pre-theater meal or the midday happy hour (aka liquid lunch) from 11 am - 2 pm, which is a hidden gem to come across.
